Note: These error pages will not make use of theming as they exist independent of user accounts by design.
Known Issues
The following issues were detected and are being addressed in the next release of the V-Raptor™.
Deleting configuration files
We are aware of an issue that occurs when attempting to delete all the configuration files on a service. The problem is known to occur when using the following API on the V-Raptor™’s deployment agent:
/api/config/delete/all
In the interim configuration files can be deleted individually.
Theming changes don’t always apply
We are also aware of an issue that causes the user’s theme to be set in Commander™ but not on V-Raptor™.
